AWANP 1

I thought I’d share today a personal comic that I’m working on. This comic is a piece of personal expression. So one might consider it to be “art” comics. But I digress.

This is a page I’ve done pencils for (the word for a rough, unfinished comics page – before the inks are put down and the page is cleaned up). This is from an avant-garde series I’m developing called Hilda and Richie. The story revolves around two foxes – a young boy fox named Richie and a 20-year-old female fox named Hilda. The two live in a big mansion in a fictitious city-state called Foxville. And that’s all you need to know right now about the concept itself. So how about a comics page?

As the scene opens up, Richie is in one of the huge rooms of the mansion. He’s standing before a mirror and seems to be studying his reflection.

Richie apparently has something in his mouth. I wonder what he could be chewing on…but alas, friends, that will have to wait until next week.
